Step 1:  Placing the speakers
The Philips Home Theatre System is 
simple to install.  However, proper 
system placement is critical to ensure an 
optimum sound experience.
A Place the front left and right speakers at 
equal distances from the TV and at an 
angle of approximately 45 degrees from 
the listening position.
B Place the centre speaker above the TV or 
the DVD system so that the centre 
channel’s sound is localised.
C Place the rear speakers at normal 
listening ear level facing each other.
D Place the subwoofer at the corner of the 
room.  Keep at least one metre away 
from the TV. Helpful Hints:
– The placement diagram shown here is only 
a guideline that will provide great system 
performance.  You may fi nd other placement 
choices that are more suitable for your room 
layout and provide the sound experience you 
enjoy.
– To avoid magnetic interference, do not 
position the front speakers too close to your 
TV.
– The rear speakers are labeled as REAR 
LEFT or REAR RIGHT.
– The front speakers are labeled as
FRONT LEFT or FRONT RIGHT.
